It was meant to be ridiculous. I just want a reasonable explanation from the person who posted the picture as to what message he was trying to send because if it was "the tea party is racist", I don't get it.

Interesting.

Yep, that's about par for the course. Don't ya get it yet? If ANY minorities say anything in favor of the Republican or Tea Party, they are labled Uncle Toms, Fake Mexicans, racist against their own kind, yada yada yada.....Brainwashing at it's best. Heck, sometimes I feel Liberals would make the best CIA operatives as they have a wonderful way of twisting the truth and making the masses believe it, especially minorities.....

Ok. I'll probably get thrown out of "the movement" for this, but I'll tell you a secret....we do hate blacks. and hispanics. and jews. and pollocks. Especially pollocks.

We plan on overtaking the government and placing all of those poor people into the slavery of the federal government.

DON'T TELL ANYONE!

Well I do agree with your first point since anyone opposed to Obama (for any reason, including racism) will be drawn to a highly energized movement like this. Doesn't make the movement itself racist. Besides, most tea partiers I know and "true conservatives" such as myself dislike Bush also.

The truth is it doesn't matter if the guy is an Alinskyite or not. Liberalism was dressed up in non-descript "hope and change" for the 2008 election because calling it what it really is "tax and spend" doesn't work anymore. The days of liberal relevance are long, long gone. George Wallace is no longer standing in the schoolhouse doors refusing to admit black students. Women decide all elections and have for decades. Gays are protected against all sorts of discrimination and earn on average more than heterosexuals. So who needs a liberal? What purpose do they still have? Who is the Yin to the leftist Yang?

In the absence of real racists, sexists and homophobes, Tea Party protesters have become the object to which the left has elected to attach their bigot boogie men. The bad news for the left is that neither time nor the reality of the exponentially growing debt are on their side, so liberalism will die of its own disease in time regardless of the name calling done to their opposition in the Tea Party movement.

Let's assume that the guy with that sign is racist. That doesn't make the entire tea Party Racist. Sound familiar?
